Case Studies

Our client, a US-based chemical company specializing in cellulose-based materials, needed to recruit niche talent following the acquisition of a Canadian lumber company. The hard-to-fill roles were spread across remote Ontario and Quebec, and required candidates who spoke English and Canadian French.

For many years, Sharp had relied on traditional recruitment methods, but this approach was costing the business more than £750,000 per annum. Seeking a more efficient and cost-effective solution, Sharp’s senior leadership team decided to switch to recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) to fill more than 270 new roles across Europe.

With flexibility a necessity, senior executives at Caterpillar sought a custom recruitment outsourcing model. The model needed to be capable of supporting lower-volume periods, in anticipation of more significant hiring in future. Caterpillar’s partner also needed to expertly source local candidates, particularly since expat salaries exceed local market rates.

The client needed an RPO provider that could build a consistent, quality recruitment process and supporting policies; generate a rich pipeline of talent across key international markets; and provide the greatest return on investment.

When a luxury auto maker was struggling to fill its automotive training classes with enough students, they turned to Hudson RPO for a new candidate website and an ongoing social media and internet advertising program.
